Angeboten wird „MRE 220 mit Super-Black-Box und Eingangsübertrager“ von Octave als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Röhren-Endverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5786199053 endet am 09.07.2026 um 21:49 Uhr.
Good condition, but at €11,750 this sits well above the €5,840 median and even past the €9,315 75th percentile for recent comparable listings, so it’s an ambitious ask rather than a bargain. The premium means you’re paying for a top-of-market example, and it should be priced accordingly.
That said, this is a very serious tube power amp package: the Super-Black-Box and input transformer are exactly the sort of extras that matter, especially for noise floor, drive, and overall refinement. If the cosmetics and service history are genuinely strong, the inclusion of those upgrades does add real value—but at this level I’d want proof of condition, recent maintenance, and matching performance.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Octave Audio traces its roots to 1968, when Karl Heinz Hofmann established a transformer winding factory in Karlsbad, Germany. His son, Andreas Hofmann, joined in 1975, developing early semiconductor and tube amplifiers. In 2000, Andreas took the helm, rebranding it as Octave Audio to channel his decades-long passion for tube-based electronics into high-end hi-fi components.
The brand specializes in meticulously hand-built tube amplifiers, including preamplifiers, power amps, and integrated models like the V 16 Single-Ended and Jubilee series. Octave emphasizes premium features such as external power supplies, balanced connectivity, adjustable gain, and modular upgrades for phono stages and power conditioning. Their in-house transformer expertise ensures low-noise performance across full-range designs, from 8-watt single-ended units to 30-watt powerhouses.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Octave commands respect among audiophiles for its German craftsmanship, sonic purity, and innovative tube technology. Hand-assembled with top-tier components at their Karlsbad headquarters, these amplifiers deliver uncompromising musicality, appealing to discerning buyers seeking perfection over mass production.
